Teen Kills Parents With Hammer Then Throws a House Party ! !

PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- A Florida teenager is accused of killing his parents and then throwing a house party inside their Port St. Lucie home.

Police said 17-year-old Tyler Hadley used a hammer to kill Blake and Mary-Jo Hadley on Saturday.

Police went to the home at 371 Northeast Grandeur Ave. about 4:20 a.m. Sunday after getting an anonymous tip that a teenager had murdered his parents and that their bodies were still in the home.

Officers found the victim's bodies in the locked master bedroom and a weapon possibly used in the killings nearby.

"We believe that the homicide occurred outside the door of the master bedroom," said Port St. Lucie police spokesman Tom Nichols. "We believe that Mom was killed first, then Dad, and then Tyler did then bring the bodies back inside the room, where they were laid on the floor, the hammer between them, where he tried to conceal the bodies with household items."

Police said Tyler Hadley concealed the bodies by putting towels, linens and even picture frames on them.

About 40-60 people attended the party inside the home after the killings had been committed. Police said the party started at 9 p.m. Saturday, and they believe the teen's parents were dead by then.

Detectives said Hadley was very nervous after he was arrested and refused to answer many questions. There is no known motive right now.

"They said that he killed his parents with a hammer because they wouldn't let him throw a party," a partygoer said.

Hadley is charged with two counts of first-degree murder and is being held without bond.

The medical examiner is conducting an autopsy on the victims to determine exactly how they died.

Police believe Mary-Jo Hadley was a teacher and that Blake Hadley worked for Florida Power and Light.
